Our Mission Statement

Our Mission Statement

We are an active globally-minded group from Remuera Intermediate School in Auckland New Zealand, that are concerned about the important issues of today. We align ourselves with the values programme of our school and endeavour to make a difference to our school and our community. We will organise special days throughout the year to build awareness of global issues such as the environment and peace. We will concentrate on service and being of benefit to others. Our time to change the world is at our Friday lunchtime meetings with Mr Zemke in the Media Room.

Cool Videos to prove you can go waste free!!!!

Here you go!

Ocean plastic pollution

Imagine that you are a turtle, happily floating in the calm blue sea. You see what looks to be a jellyfish, floating towards you. You reach out, about to eat it but suddenly you feel something around your  neck! The strange jellyfish is suffocating you, and your vision fades to black.

That weird jellyfish is a plastic bag, and turtles mistaking them for jellies is happening more and more which makes the turtle population less and less. It is also so many other sea life animals face the same threats :(

the enviro tree.

Last week, lots of people helped make these leaves for the amazing enviro board. People came during lunchtime  to paint. ( see earlier posts) and it ended up making this!

Thank you so much Mr Zemke, Mrs Sturgiss and Miss Hunter for all the help and effort. Also thank you all for all those who helped.
